In describing patterns in the data, several sentences seemed particularly important to us.  First, Hansson and Omstedt note that “It appears that the late twentieth century warming in the Baltic Sea region cannot be determined to be unprecedented over the past 500 years, as the mid-eighteenth century warming is of comparable magnitude. Both these periods were exceptionally warm compared to the mean temperature of the considered period.” Second, they note that warming was observed from 1875 to 1935, “steadily marking the end of LIA” (Little Ice Age).  And thirdly, “From 1935 to the present no statistically significant water temperature trend can be determined.”  Recall that the Baltic is in a mid-to-high latitude location in the Northern Hemisphere – just where the warming should be most pronounced due to the buildup of greenhouse gases according to the models of climate.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/B5779ECE-DDEC-4176-9084-1D4528B74722/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
